advantage and disadvantage of choosing either one of them toward the interest of ship owner and cargo
owner. It is a doctrinal research which descriptive in nature. The paper discuss and examine the situation

related laws. It is clear that there are differences between General Average and Jettison in which the former
requires strict compliance with General Average elements such as common marine adventure and in time
of peril otherwise it will consider as the latter. Moreover, General average and jettison is a relief for master
since any act of avoiding loss to the voyage including throwing cargo off board is covered by the insurance.
However, the main concern is the uniqueness of General Average where the scarified cargo entitle for the
damages even though having no insurance coverage since the payment is claimed from those who survived.
Meanwhile, the jettison is a risk covered under the policy of marine insurance. Therefore, it is crucial for
master to have the knowledge on the status of cargo and ship before deciding to choose General Average
or Jettison. | en_US |
